Who is My Advisor?

Advising

All Kinesiology students should complete the following each year to ensure timely graduation and assistance on career planning.

  1. Use advising sheets for your concentration as a guide and prepare a myCap plan for at least one semester, and then bring the plan to one of the following advising appointments. Other advising resources can be found here.
  2. Visit Academic Advising in UH-329 Monday through Friday during drop-in hours in person or virtually.
  3. Review your myCap and career plans with a KINE faculty advisor.  Contact a KINE faculty advisor listed below based on your concentration and their Fall Advising Hours that work best for you.

If this is your first time seeking advising with the Kinesiology Department, we recommend you make an appointment with our general advisors located at the Kinesiology Main Office (HP 120).  See the schedule below.
